you don't understand when I call you arrogant
you don't seem to realize how prideful you are
you argue and say I'm lying
when I tell you that you think you're perfect
you don't understand what I meant by that
because in your mind,
you're always the victim
you're never at fault
someone else is always to blame
you don't realize that you screwed up, too
and you don't realize that you were a bitch, too
instead it's their fault
and they are the bully
and they are the bitch
and they screwed up
and they're to blame
you didn't do anything wrong
it was them who did all the wrong
can't you see how prideful that is?
why can't you swallow your pride,
and realize that you did wrong, too?
you refuse to accept any responsibility
and that means you refuse to learn
from your mistakes
